Mojo Thanks

Hey everyone, happy Monday!!! Can I say that, or is it like having a way too-caffeinated Starbucks employee trying to chitchat with you before you've been caffeinated??? LOL I got to stamp this weekend in honor of World Card Making Day, so it was a really good weekend for me. To see the cards I made, you can check out my SCS gallery, as I probably won't be posting them here.


Today's the first Monday in October, so it's time for a Mojo Monday contest. There's several chances to win Verve Stamps by playing along with this week's sketch {Mojo107}, so be sure to hop on over to the Mojo Blog to see the sketch and get inspired! For my card, I pulled out a couple older sets. The sentiment is from Fancy Florals and the flower is from the Everlasting Life sets. I embossed them with Craft Chocolate Chip ink and clear EP directly on the designer paper. My papers are from the Ooo La La Collection by My Mind's Eye. Don't you just love those huge polka dots? They make me smile! I cut my rectangles and circles with Nestabilities and layered with dimensionals.

My ribbon is from last year's Alpine Originals by SU! (I think it's on clearance right now if you want some.) It took me almost a year and several fabulous cards by Teresa, to inspire me to take it out of it's wrapper, but now I'm HOOKED! It's so cozy! To dress up my paper and flower, I added a little mixture of Diamond Glaze and glitter, then finished off with some chocolate pearls.

Okay, that's all the chit chat about my card. In other news, the Verve Project Parade starts today, so hop on over to find out all the details on this month's theme and see Jen del Muro's project.

Love the way you put this card together, as well as the aqua color used with brown. It's one of my favorite combo. Well done!! Thanks for visiting my blog too.
